Tecco System

Tecco system is a kind of active rockfall protection system, including tecco mesh, anchor, spike plate, boundary rope, sewing rope and connection clips. With the wire ropes and steel clips, the tecco mesh is fastened onto the mountain or slope surface tightly and firmly to block the large stones and reduce the damage of landslip or debris flow.

Tecco system is an important active protection type system in the rockfall protection projects. This tecco system mainly consists of tecco mesh, anchor, spike plate, boundary rope, sewing rope and specialized connection clips. The tecco meshes are fastened to the slope tightly by the anchors and spike plates through prestressed tension. Then the boundary rope, sewing rope and connection clips will reinforce the tecco mesh for solid and firm. When the landslide and debris flow comes, the large stones or debris will be blocked by the tecco mesh and reduce the attack to the ground.

Compared with other rockfall protection systems, the tecco system is made of high carbon steel wire with high strength and hardness. Tecco system is the simplest structure among all the rockfall barrier systems.

Components of the Tecco System

  * Tecco mesh. Main part of the tecco system is made of high tensile steel wire and have excellent corrosion resistance performance. The 1770 N/m² tensile strength supply maximum protection for the slope and people.

  * Steel anchor. The steel anchor is made of deformed steel bar with 25 mm diameter, it is mainly used to fix the tecco mesh onto the rock or soil slopes. It can supply the whole stability to the slope and tecco mesh.

  * Claw type Spike Plate. The claw type spike plate is commonly used with nails to fasten the tecco mesh onto the slope firmly. The claw design make the spike plate a more stable and firm structure.

  * Soil or rock nails. Used with claw type spike plate to fix the tecco mesh onto the mountain. High tensile strength and solid structure make it be long service life and good condition.

  * Connection Clips. The connection clips are used to connect the neighbor tecco mesh rolls firmly. It is an alternative to the sewing rope and the connection is commonly without overlap.

  * Sewing rope. It is used for connecting the neighbor tecco meshes. And the connection is commonly have overlaps. It can be used to replace the clips.

  * Boundary rope. Pass through the tecco mesh and then be fixed onto the anchor for tecco mesh and system stability.

Applications of Tecco System

  * The tecco system is suitable for soil texture and similar slope surface. It can not only stabilize the slope and replace the traditional mortar slag stones structure, it is also environmental friendly, which can ensure the plant growth.

  * It can be used in the strong weathered rock slopes, bank strengthening.

  * It can be used to control water and soil loss and external-soil spray seeding.
